Easy hike to sugarloaf summit. AT also easily followed but moderate powder 12"-15" deep with deeper drifts made slow going. Was planning on doing Abraham as well, but wasn't able to keep a solid pace. Returned the same route. For now... trail is well broken out to Spaulding. Great weather with blue skies , good temps, and very little wind. |
